I miss Emily when....


...I am making Jake's lunch for school. Emily knew when I was making Jake's sandwich. She could be in the other room with Jake, but she knew when it was time to come and get her treat. Jake doesn't like the crust on his sandwich and I happen to have this handy Pampered Chef sandwich "cut-and-seal" (works great on keeping the J in your PB & J) that makes de-crusting an even easier job. Emily was the recipient of the unwanted crust. So, every morning when I am making Jake's lunch (even the mornings I am not making him a sandwich...), I smile and enjoy the memory of my sweet Emer's (one of her many nicknames) wagging her tail, licking her lips, and sitting patiently waiting for her crust. It seems crazy to just throw it a way...
